Hi there.

I'm in my 20's. I have one child. I've been married 3 very, very happy years to the man of my dreams, who I never dared to dream I could have.

We're new parents of a not-so-new "baby."

Our Hana is 3 1/2 years old, born in October 2008, and we've known each other since December of 2011. She, my husband and I have been a family of 3 since early 2012. She's the light of our lives, even though sometimes I don't feel like I know what to do or what I did to deserve her.

I did not have the luxury of 9 months to get used to the idea of motherhood, nor have I had the first 3 years of bonding, learning, memories, experience, that most of you have had with your children. However, we have a lifetime to have as many "firsts" as we like, and are making new, better memories together, and that's what counts now.

I don't know my ass from first base some days. I screw up sometimes. But I am trying, and I am learning from both my successes and my failures.

Be patient with me. Thank goodness my Hana is!
